Hi Rick,

i'm no tax whiz, but my understanding is that if you sell an issue, then purchase the same issue or any option on that issue, within 30 days, the wash sale does apply and you cannot claim the initial loss to the IRS. Maybe someone else here knows differently.

You picked a great day to buy LEAPs, my friend! I think QCOM had a nice blow-off bottom today. I bought some common and some calls, and I know others here did too. A great opportunity not to be missed. <G>

Rick,
My understanding is that if you didn't purchase the same month of the same year, you should be clear of the wash sale rule. I'm no expert, but hope this helps.
